I cannot think of an easy way to do this, so I thought that I'd ask. I want to copy a sequential file to another sequential file (both on DASD, not tape!), translating the contents from EBCDIC (CP-037) to ASCII (ISO8859-1). I can think of a way to do it using UNIX services, but I'm hoping for a simplier method. The ASCII file is to be transferred to a Windows system, so each line must end in CRLF.
Yes, I could use Dovetailed Technologies' "fromdsn" and "todsn" piped to each other, but that seems "silly" to me. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
